| Description | Anhydrosecoisolariciresinol can significantly decrease the growth of human breast cancer MCF-7 and MDA-MB-231 cell lines at 50 and 100 microM. |
| In vitro | Therefore, we now report the isolation and structural elucidation of six new phenolic glycosides {wedebicoside A - F (1-6)} and one new ceramide [wedebiceramide (9)], together with six known compounds, 1-O-(2',4'-diangeloyloxy-beta-D-fucopyranosyl)-6-hydroxythymol (7), 1-O-[2',4'-diangeloyloxy-3'-(3'-angeloyloxy-beta-D-fucopyranosyl)-beta-D-fucopyransyl]-6-hydroxythymol (8), Anhydrosecoisolariciresinol (10), friedeline (11), epifriedelanol (12) and stigmasterol (13) from the flowers of Wedelia biflora. Their structures were established by 1D and 2D NMR spectroscopy, as well as by high resolution ESI-MS analysis and comparison with literature data. The cytotoxic activities against HeLa, MCF-7 and NCI-H460 were evaluated on some purified compounds at the concentration of 100 microg/mL. Compounds 1, 2, 3 and 5 showed strong cytotoxic activities against three surveyed cancer cell lines[1] |
